By the way, hardcoding passwd is not a good idea, you'd better setup an ssh connection (generate private key with puttygen.exe) setup your public key into your ~user/.ssh/authorized_keys file on the step server.
Run the putty agent
you can make a shortcut on your desktop so that it load your private key automagically, you just have to enter your passphrase:
example in the properties of your shortcut to launch the puttyagent so that it will provide your public authentication to your further putty session without prompting you whe you log to the remote step serv:

Code:
"C:\Program Files\PuTTY\pageant.exe" D:\whtever_path_yr_private_key_is_in\your_private_key.ppk

Add the path of your private key in the setup of your PuTTY session.

NAME

       dh_installlisting - install .listing files to be used by desktop-profiles package

SYNOPSIS

       dh_installlisting [debhelper options] [filename(s)]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_installlisting is a debhelper program that handles installing listing files used by the desktop-profiles package into the correct
       location in package builddirectories (NOTE: this command is provided by the desktop-profiles package, so don't forget to build-depends on
       it). It also updates the cache of profile assignments (when it exists) to reflect the added metadata.

       If a file named debian/package.listing exists (or debian/listing in case of the main package) it is installed in etc/desktop-profiles. In
       addition any files given as argument will be installed in etc/desktop-profiles as package_file.listing. The format of .listing files is
       described in desktop-profiles(7).

       A dependancy on desktop-profiles will be added to misc:Depends by using this script.
